Big5

Big5, also known as Big five or Big five, is the most commonly used computer Chinese character set standard in the traditional Chinese (traditional Chinese) community, with a total of 13060 Chinese characters.

Chinese codes are divided into internal codes and interchange codes. Big5 belongs to Chinese internal codes, and the well-known Chinese interchange codes are CCCII and CNS11643.

Although Big5 is widely used in traditional Chinese communication areas such as Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, it has long been not a local national or official standard, but only an industry standard. The character sets of major systems such as Yitian Chinese system and Windows traditional Chinese version are based on Big5, but manufacturers add different character-making and character-making areas, which are derived into a variety of different versions.

In 2003, Big5 was included in the appendix of CNS11643 Chinese standard interchange code and gained a more formal status. This latest version is called Big5-2003.

Both big5 and gb are the coding methods of Chinese characters in computers. In addition to these two coding methods, there are GBK coding and GB18030 coding. GBK coding is represented by 2 bytes and GB18030 coding is represented by variable bytes.
